People visiting the ReactOS website today were in for a shock. "Accusations have been made by some of ReactOS' own developers about certain parts of ReactOS code. The project is suspending development pending legal council. The project will resume once the issue has been rectified." I could not find any more information, as the links to the mailinglist archives are dead.

Know is an abstract idea (sorry you got me on my philosophical foot today) how do you know? Fact is the basis for knowledge (knowing) and how can fact exist for anything but the most basic of ideas. This is helium, that is iron. In anything more complicated personality and opinion figures in. Your hair looks like crap today, you have a nice car.
I will wait for a statement, but it won't change my state of knowing. If the person that supposedly caused the taint did his act out of ignorance and insists he did no wrong what is there to know? It's a people issue and it blows over, always. If you have a fight with another person you either get back together or not.
